New 2019 210 owner looking for options to upgrade the ballast bags. I really don’t want to lose the trays so wondering what the largest bags are that I can replace the 300’s with and still use the trays? Thanks in advance.

our experience is that the boat performs better with a more equally distributed load and not just dumping another few hundred pounds in the back.
I bought some lead bags and have them spread out all over the boat and found the wave has definitely improved.
If you want the extra load in the rear, just have your crew sit in the back. -
I don’t know on that boat but when I was upgrading the ballast in my boat, I just used a tape measure. You should be able to see what the height is from the bottom of the tray to the floor and look for the appropriate sized bag. Most sellers have the bag dimensions listed and in my experience they’re pretty accurate.Comment

600's will fit with trays and 750's will fit with trays out. We put 750's in there, took the trays out, and spread 500 pounds of lead around the boat from mid-ship forward and we love the wave. Not sure on how you use your boat, on a lift or trailer a lot for a decent distance, but the most effective use of space to get weight is the lead. Challenge with lead on a 210 is that it's always there. Harder to get a clean wakeboard wake for the kids at a slower speed and when the rear ballast is empty the front loves to go under water.
If I kept ours on our lift and never took it anywhere, I would strongly consider just adding 1000 pounds of lead on top of pro ballast and move on with it. I just did not want to deal with trailering the extra weight and our kids wakeboard a lot so the less permanent weight option worked better for us.Comment
